Wonderful app for expressing Love Languages
Love this app! I like the breakdown of percentages with Love Language results and the ability to take the quiz from within the app. The goal suggestions are great! Especially if you have a hard time coming up with ways to speak your spouse’s love language. Just wish there was a family version! Would be great to set up so parents, children, and siblings could connect and set goals and view the rising and falling of their family’s Love Tank levels.

Misses the mark
The book itself is a great read but the app asks too few and leading questions to really assess your love languages. As well the offered tasks are extremely low impact and minimal. It’s a good app if you’re just getting exposed to the book or have never read it. Otherwise it falls very short of expectations
You also can’t have continued chat/conversations without starting a new reply.
Give it five or ten more revisions and it may be more useful

A clunky app
I’m still trying to navigate this .. it doesn’t flow smoothly. I don’t want to pick the goals for my partner as we are totally different. I want to be able to just tick a suggested list of things that I would like done for him and be able daily to emphasise one if I want and he do the same. Then we randomly get them sent to my phone during the day..AEST... not in the night... if this is possible it isn’t clear how. We have been together 21 years and he is on the spectrum so needs total guidance and I need help understanding him too.

Love Nudge Is Helpful
I read the 5 Love Languages and learned a lot about myself and the people in my life. This app (from the same people I believe) is helpful in reminding you to take time each week/day (you choose the settings) to focus attention and love towards your Significant Other. We shouldn’t have to be reminded but life is hectic and this app gently “nudges” you towards making love a habit. The emails are also good for thought - those are optional also.

Helpful/Thoughtful but could use a tweak
My husband and I just got started using this, and it’s a helpful tool for me to remember to give my personal time to him (he’s quality time, I’m acts of service). However, we both wish we could add personal goals/wish list to share with each other, instead of the goals just being centered on the other person. That’s definitely important, but being able to share your needs in writing with your partner can be really helpful for those that need things in writing. They can then add those things to their goal list. I know you could just talk about them and set them, but if a relationship is having communication issues that might not happen. Just a suggestion from someone who isn’t always good at asking for what she needs!

Response from developer
Hi Stephanie - Based on your feedback, we'd like to hear more from you about how we might enhance the app experience. Follow this link to find out how you can be a part of making Love Nudge even better: https://mailchi.mp/a96b9cedba1b/lovenudge
Great Potential
This app has great potential, but I don’t feel like the 2 users experience is quite integrated enough yet. If I can create goals for myself, awesome, but why can I not create goals for my partner or vice versa? If we sit down and talk about them, that’s fine, but it seems like something that should be able to be done in app. The nudge feature also feels a little juvenile. If I create goals for my partner, or him for me, it seems like the app itself should be able to nudge if I’m not fulfilling those goals. My partner shouldn’t have to; that takes away from not having to put in the emotional labor. It’s a great concept and I can’t wait to see where it goes!!

People in long distance relationships— this may be the app you are looking for!
My parent and I were searching for solid long distance apps and this one popped up... at first I skipped over it because it seemed like a bad fit but it’s actually perfect! Definitely consider this if you are wanting a way to track how you both are feeling while apart and keep up all the healthy communication habits that are so important when far apart. The love language quiz is really good too and worth the length! It feels like a secret weapon to know each of your love languages before you start long distance— you can both plan for ways to express love while you are apart that the other will appreciate.

A Great App With Great Potential!
I haven’t read the books, but I think the app really has potential to help my relationship become stronger, as it will help communication of needs between us and be so in love we seem permanently in the honeymoon phase. But I do have some suggestions. I think it would be cool to have private goals and like a “Couple’s Goals” that both partners can see common goals to work for -together-, and still be able to have your personal goals like “ask about their day”, or “fix them surprise breakfast”. And maybe little features like date night favorites that both partners can add to and requests like that. It’s like making relationship stuff and communication a game without realizing it.

Simple but effective
My wife and I had some drastic schedule changes in the last couple months that had us both running on empty. This app gave us a reminder of what we know, and a simple but effective way to prompt one another on how to get back up to full. After two days of using the app my wife and I are both filled up. Also, I like that the goals can be given a frequency to remind me to do the things that she needs instead of dwelling on the things I want.
I give the app 3 stars because it doesn’t seem very sticky. There’s room to turn this into something that’s life changing rather than just helpful. I’d like to see more suggestions that could help us get new ideas when we feel stuck. Another thing that could help is adding quiz questions for one another to help us better learn each other’s love languages. My final thought is it may be interesting to have reports on when the Love tank is most likely to be empty. For example - tracking the hour updated and the date could show if the morning or evening is when we should be more proactive.

Rate different goals?
I just got the app and so far it seems great! However, my love languages are all pretty evenly scored. What I think would be really wonderful is if we could go through the optioned lists of goals and services a partner can do and rate each one as to how much one service would mean to someone over another. Example: verbalizing appreciation would be scored a 2 on a 1-5 scale (5 being high) while a secret love note would score a 5 for me. They are in the same love language, but one means a lot more to me than the other. And I would love if we had the ability to rate each option. I think it would be super helpful for our partner to know more specifically what would make us feel most loved, etc. I hope this makes sense. 😊 love the app otherwise though!
